Human rights aren't worth much today
Greed and power is what dominates
We'd be better off ruling ourselves
Freedom's never given out
It's something that you have to takeEvery civil right that was won
Came after a long hard fight
We'd be better off ruling ourselves
At least we'd have control over our lives!
Revolutions happen all the time
They fail when we let leaders take control
Why should we let others push us around
When we are smart enough to take things
Into our own hands and how to
Get our rights back from the ruling classesBurn the rich out and kick their asses
We'd be better off ruling ourselves
People think without a government
There'll be violence in the streets
But that's already happening now
And it's not going awayWe'd be better off ruling ourselves
At lest we'd have control over our lives
Revolutions happen all the time
They fail whhen we let leaders take control
Why should we let others push us around
When we are smart enough to take things
Into our own hands and rule ourselves
